[Short Intro – Spoken / Fun Voice] You hear that beat? That’s not thunder, baby — that’s the undead groove! ⸻ [Verse 1] Out from the dirt when the clock strikes nine, The graveyard’s rockin’, feelin’ fine! Bones are shakin’, tombs come alive, Everybody’s learnin’ the Zombie Jive! Coffins crack and mummies spin, Even the reaper’s joinin’ in! Lightning pops, the moon’s their guide, Now swing those hips, it’s the Zombie Jive! ⸻ [Chorus] 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Hey!) Crawl from the grave and feel alive! 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Ha!) Dead or alive, you can’t deny! Drag that leg, swing that spine, Creep in rhythm, look divine! ⸻ [Verse 2] Headless dancers twist and shout, Brains on the floor, they’re wigglin’ out! Ghosts go wild in a spectral line, Vampires spin with Frankenstein! The floorboards creak, the fog rolls in, The organ howls — let’s raise some sin! Your body’s cold, but your soul’s got drive, So jump on in to the Zombie Jive! ⸻ [Chorus] 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Hey!) Crawl from the grave and feel alive! 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Ha!) Dead or alive, you can’t deny! Drag that leg, swing that spine, Creep in rhythm, look divine! ⸻ [Bridge – Call & Response] 🎵 (Call:) “What do we do when the night’s alive?” 🎵 (Response:) “We dig right up and zombie jive!” 🎵 (Call:) “How do we dance when our hearts don’t beat?” 🎵 (Response:) “We move our bones to the graveyard beat!” ⸻ [Final Chorus] 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Hey!) Shake those bones, don’t be shy! 🎵 Do the Zombie Jive! (Ha!) Moonlight’s out, now amplify! Drag that foot, twist that grin, The dead don’t stop when the groove kicks in! ⸻ [Outro – Whispered] It’s alive… It’s alive… And it’s got rhythm. (groovy surf guitar outro)
